AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAND FORKS ND
338 PM CDT SAT APR 5 2008

.SHORT TERM...
19Z SURFACE ANALYSIS DEPICTED HIGH PRESSURE NEAR LAKE WINNIPEG
WHILE LOW PRESSURE WAS EVIDENT OVER SOUTH CENTRAL SOUTH DAKOTA.
THE CIRCULATION BETWEEN FEATURES WAS RESULTING IN NORTHEAST LOW
LEVEL FLOW. LATEST WATER VAPOR IMAGERY INDICATED POTENT S/W OVER
SOUTH CENTRAL MONTANA PUNCHING EAST.

MAIN FORECAST CHALLENGE CENTERS ON IMPENDING ROCKIES SYSTEM WITH
RESPECT TO EVENTUAL TRACK AND RESULTANT HEADLINES/SNOW AMOUNTS.
SIDED WITH HPC ON GFS BEING THE MODEL OF CHOICE WITH UPCOMING
EVENT.

STUCK WITH WINTER STORM WATCH ATTM FOR MUCH OF FORECAST AREA
EXCLUDING THE DEVILS LAKE BASIN INTO EXTREME NORTHWEST MN.
BASED ON PROJECTED TRACK OF GFS IT APPEARS THAT INITIAL PCPN
SHOULD ARRIVE LATER THIS EVENING AND THEN CONTINUE MUCH OF
SUNDAY WHEN ISENTROPIC/850MB MOISTURE FLUX CONVERGENCE WILL
BE STRONGEST. ACROSS FAR SOUTHERN TIER COUNTIES EXPECT PCPN
TO START OFF AS PLAIN RAIN...PER FORECAST SOUNDINGS CHANGING
OVER TO ALL SNOW BY 12Z SUNDAY. THIS SCENARIO WILL INHIBIT
SNOWFALL AMOUNT POTENTIAL SOMEWHAT. ELSEWHERE DEGREE OF DRYING
THAT HOLDS ON WITH PERSISTENT NORTHEAST LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL
DICTATE THE TYPE OF HEADLINE NEEDED. WILL BRIEF EVENING CREW
OF SCENARIO AND HOPEFULLY WITH EVENING OBS/ RADAR TRENDS I.E.
CURRENT ACTIVITY OVER SOUTHERN SD AND FUTURE RUC GUIDANCE WILL
HELP TO FINE TUNE WHERE HEADLINES WILL BE NEEDED. WHERE MAIN SNOW
BAND EVENTUALLY SETS UP HAS THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE SNOWFALL
AMOUNTS OF 6 OR MORE INCHES.

SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY THINGS CALM DOWN AS HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS INTO THE FORECAST AREA.

.LONG TERM (WED-SAT)...
LONG RANGE MODELS ARE IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT ON THE 500MB
PATTERN...WITH A TROF DEEPENING THE W U.S. AND GOOD SW FLOW OVER THE
N PLAINS. HOWEVER...TIMING DIFFERENCES DO REMAIN. SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE CONTINUES TO DOMINATE THE WEATHER FOR WED AND WED NIGHT...
SO TOOK THE POPS OUT. THEN...A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES OUT OF THE
ROCKIES INTO THE PLAINS ALONG WITH THE 500MB TROF TRANSLATING E...SO
KEPT THE CHANCE FOR RAIN OR SNOW FOR THU AND FRI. AS FAR AS TEMPS...
EXPECT TO REMAIN NEAR TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL.

&&

.AVIATION...
MVFR DECK THAT HAS BEEN LINGERING OVER PARTS OF THE AREA TODAY HAS
BEEN CONTINUING TO ERODE AS DRIER AIR IS BROUGHT IN ON A NE FLOW.
THUS...EXPECT IT TO TAKE A LITTLE WHILE FOR THE NEXT SYSTEM TO
RE-SATURATE THE ATMOSPHERE AND PRODUCE PCPN. EXPECT CI AND AC TO
OVERSPREAD THE AREA THIS EVENING WITH MVFR DECK GONE BY 00Z. FOR
KFAR AND KBJI...EXPECT SATURATION TO OCCUR AND PCPN TO BEGIN
EARLIER...LIKELY BETWEEN 03Z AND 06Z...THAN AT KGFK WHERE A 09Z TO
12Z START IS MORE PROBABLE.  KFAR COULD HAVE A MIX OF RA AND SN TO
START BEFORE CHANGING OVER TO ALL SN BY 06Z. REST OF AREA EXPECT
PCPN TO BE SN. CIGS AND VSBYS EXPECTED TO DROP FROM MVFR TO IFR
THROUGH THE NIGHT...ESPECIALLY AT KFAR AND KBJI. WINDS TO REMAIN
AROUND 15KT WITH GUSTS TO AROUND 25KTS ANTICIPATED BY 12Z.
